Meditation For Calming Panic Attacks & Anxiety Relief

Are you spiraling in a panic right now? Are you feeling anxious? This meditation was inspired by my friend Amanda. Amanda reached out to me and said "I was up at 3 am with anxiety and need a panic attack meditation ASAP." If you are struggling with anxiety and panic attacks, you are not alone. Make sure you are not driving. Find a place where your body can remain still and close your eyes. Breathe and listen to the sound of my voice. Relax!

Thank you for a great meditation! This calming, simple exercise was just what I was looking for after a difficult morning.

Wow, that's amazing! I can't thank you enough, YogiBrian! You were so helpful and kind during a difficult time for me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

One of the best anxiety relief sessions. Thank you so much.

I’m a therapist and I was looking for a good meditation for my clients with panic attacks. I really like this. You have a calming steady voice, and the meditation was hypnotic to get to the unconscious. Also, it was not too long—just the right amount of time. Thank you!
